4. Anyone you share your recipe with will be able to view the recipe even if they don’t have a Samsung Food account. They’ll have the option to create a Samsung Food account and save the recipe to their Recipe Box or they can simply view the recipe.
How to Share More Than One Recipe

2. Select the + icon and a window will open.
- In the iOS and Android apps, you will be prompted to Create private community or Create public community - select private.

3. You can fill out the following fields:
- Community Name: let your creativity flow and give your Community a great name.
- Photo: add a nice photo.
- Category: select a category that serves as the theme of your Community.
- Privacy: confirm Private is selected.
- Permissions: decide if you only want yourself and anyone else you designate as an admin to add recipes, or if you want anyone you ask to join your Community to be able to add.
- Web & Social (optional): You can link to any website, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok page.
4. Once complete, click Create to save your Community
5. To invite friends and family, open your new, private Community and click Invite. There are multiple options including copy link, email, text and more.
Note* You are only allowed to share the original recipe. Samsung Food does not permit sharing of edited or tweaked recipes. The primary reason for this restriction is to protect the intellectual property of the creators.
Share Collections
In your Recipe Box, you can create Collections and add recipes to them. To find out more, see this article. You can share those Collections but please note there is a limitation. Specifically, if you or someone with whom you've shared a Collection makes any changes to the recipes in that Collection, those changes will not be visible to you or anyone else who has access to that Collection.
To share a collection:
- Tap Saved icon at the top (app.samsungfood.com) or bottom (native apps) of the screen.
- Select Collections tab at the top of the screen.
- Find and select the Collection you’d like to share.
- Tap the share icon or in the top right corner of the screen.
- A pop up will appear where you can choose to share your collection by email, link, text, social media, and more.
- When you share a collection, the recipient will be able to view the collection even if they don’t have a Samsung Food account. They’ll also have the option to sign up for a Samsung Food account and save the collection to their own recipe box.
